Only 9 countries in the world are eligible to play TEST cricket.
This week: 5th ranked Pakistan, beat England, ranked no. 1 in the world.
Also
4th ranked Australia beat 3 ranked India.
Woohoo!

I just wish the guys predicted to become strong major league hitters were a little closer to the majors. I’m liking the Dom Brown idea more and more each day, but I also think it’s unlikely.
I know I’ll be really ticked off if Ibanez is a Yankee though.

He’s amazing. Absolutely love him. You guys would be very lucky to get him.

Good to hear from someone who watches him play a lot.
People on BTB have been reporting he’s lazy and looks disinterested. But from film highlights I see the next Julius Peppers.
He is one of my favorite players, and probably my favorite from here going to the NFL. To me, Donte Paige-Moss is the one people need to worry about having a bad attitude, not Coples.

Dante Bichette Jr.
definitely one to keep your eye on, as he continues to show he’s a legit 3rd baseman and if he keeps up the similar approach at the plate( patient with good contact skills) he could be one to move quick.
my bold prediction for the 2012 season is that DBJ is promoted mid-year and finishes the season in High A Tampa.

That’s for 20 players, including all the Arb guys but not league-minimum guys like Nova & Pineda.
Maybe they really are done adding this year, unless it’s through a trade. It will be interesting to see what they do w. that DH spot if they’ve decided there’s no money left.

here's a question
Should I like the song “Video Games”? I know she got destroyed for her performance on SNL, which I didn’t watch, but that song is different, and that’s something.

I haven't heard it yet
I’ll let you know when I do!

Oswalt, who has been “on the verge of signing” for like 2 weeks, is going to meet with the Rangers.

Rangers don’t need him, but it seems like the really wants to play for them

he clearly doesn't have the offer he wants
Or an offer that makes him forget about the offer he wants. So what does he want? A specific team? More years? More money?

A NEW CAR?

My little brother was a huge UNC fan when he was 8.
Now he likes the NBA because all those guys moved on.
So with this type of progression, I guess when those guys retire he’ll no longer be a basketball fan?
Romine!
He couldn't handle not knowing the players names.
In the NBA the team changes, but not drastically like college.
Awesome, he’s winning this game for the Spurs

Didn’t all the words in your user name used to be capitalized? Or am I just confused because I always see WWJD?
Romine!
Nope, though I’d prefer it to be that way. I never thought I’d actually stick around, so I didn’t really think the username through.

I just didn’t want to have to constantly refresh the page to read new comments, so I threw something down in the sign up box and went with it. If only I had known then what I know now…

NHL al; star game final score 12-9
They play almost as much defense in that game as the teams do in the NBA All Star Game.
